And you'd think 9 months or so after the "Russian army is on brink of collapse, zero morale and old weapons", people would wake up and see this war is not ending anytime soon.
Wish I could remind myself in 1 year.
Well considering the Ukrainan counter hasn't begun,
The orcs are getting slaughtered in the tens of thousands a month , they have little or no heavy armor and can't move freely without getting detected by an army of drones followed rapidly by Ukrainian artillery.
Just wait and see what happens when 100,000 + Ukrainians make their move it's going to be pure carnage
lol
You've watched too much Braveheart lad.
You're whipping yourself into some fantasy frezny that won't turn out like you imagine.
I was watching another video report from Ukraine...an old woman saying she just wants peace. The price to pay for peace and lives saved, is worth it right now imo.
Give them Donbas and Crimea and then join NATO and the nukes in ASAP.
The only route to peace involves the total anilation of orcs forces in Ukraine and the return of occupied territories,all occupied territories,
Then we will have peace,you giving away Ukrainian land ends in more wars ,
Not peace
No it will probably go on in to next year.
It may also see a Russian front collapse.
Russia has only one role of the dice left to gain ground in the 4 oblasts it now claims and it is getting harder each day to see that happening.
Stalemate and bloodshed for a year likely, a Russian success, holding what they now have, that would be some achievement. Their performance has been miserable .
A face to the name. Doubt she'd be welcome in Kazakhstan either.
Hopefully she gives up all contacts and associations to the authorities.
Expect an appearance on the late late
When have you seen an old woman outside of Russia not asking for peace
Hazel Chu is worth a look at too. She's buried in us like a tick and used every devicive trick in the book to get into power
Tallinn joins Riga and puts a trashed Russian T-72 on display in the city’s Freedom Square.
OK I have located the video of the Ukrainian press ganging of civilians against their will, here it is:
Denys, who is very pro Ukrainian, also is not scared to tell the truth. He talks about the corruption in the Ukrainian army/government in several of his videos.
That's desperate 🤦♂️
@farmingquestion
The price to pay for peace and lives saved, is worth it right now imo.
Russia would happily commit ethnic cleansing in any lands ceded under a peace deal. We can see in Izium, Bucha and Mariupol what Russia is prepared to do to ordinary Ukrainian citizens. I can appreciate that there must be so many people in Ukraine just wanting a day without war, but I'm sure you can also appreciate that in territory ceded by Ukraine, there would be those not wanting to be taken in the night just for flying a Ukrainian flag.
He's basically taking a video, and then putting his story to it. Anyone could do that, I could use same video and go with 3 Ukrainian Soldiers capture a Russian soldier responsible for the rape of women and children.
Aye, could be a deserter from the Frontline etc... Seems to be faked videos/out of context:
just because someone on Twitter that is pro-Ukranian posts a video, doesn't mean it's real. Especially when alot of them try to keep up to date on the latest developments.
Yes it is. Lots of posts on this thread saying that the Ukrainian troops are highly motivated and well trained, it seems that's not strictly always true.
There are other videos on his channel detailing the financial corruption and new found wealth in the Ukrainian government/military they will be in his catalogue further back.
@SlowBlowin Yes it is. Lots of posts on this thread saying that the Ukrainian troops are highly motivated and well trained, it seems that's not strictly always true.
That's exactly true , highly motivated and trained better than the orcs and better equipped too .
Those Ukrainian soldiers look pretty similar to the ones who are in the videos when the Russian collaborators- spies are arrested in Ukraine
Why do you think it couldn't be one of those, or is video guy gospel to you
Those "ordinary guys" can go and get fukked...Raping ,child molesting goat fukking scum bags. Special mention of war crimes in Bucha and else where in case you forgot

Give Putin his win? Russia learned from past mistakes and built up reserves to sanction proof themselves and then invaded. Of course they planned on a 3 day war and were a disaster militarily. They will learn from this mistake.
Dont fall into the trap (few will) and think Putin will be happy to not fully control Ukraine. It’s his Russian birthright, Nazi’s live there, Russians are being maltreated there blah blah blah.
So, no buying off Mordor with land which only emboldens the Orcs - and you’ll only be giving Russia a third go at invasion. Surely, surely you can see this (most of us can).
No, best to continue the fight while NATO are engaged. Putin CANNOT/WILL NOT accept the Rump Ukraine being in NATO.
So, just need to defeat Russia now while it is weak.
I have some sympathy for reluctant Russian soldiers in Ukraine.
But, only someone of suspect morals would prioritise them over Ukrainians.
If you still have their contact details, text them a message to surrender to Ukraine armed forces.
That would solve your concerns, their lives and be on the right side of history.
Slava Ukraini
Crazy that these are allowed under the Geneva convention but cluster munitions are banned. I know which one I'd rather die from
Meanwhile in Berlin.
Kateryna Polichuk defender of Mariupol (nurse) famous for singing during the siege of Azotal complex makes an appearance singing on the Destroyed tank in Berlin
Less chance of civilians being killed with a flame thrower vs indiscriminate firing of cluster munitions (also UXO left over)
What's baffling to me is why a country defending itself should have to abide by the Geneva convention. Technically Russia hasn't declared war, so why should it be protected?
I spoke with a Russian friend of long standing last night, an avowed critic of Putin, an educated guy, he sees exactly what Putin has done and is doing to Russia. He has many friends who think likewise, but as he says what can you do? Putin has Russia in an iron grip. Agitate, and protest ( Putin's biggest fear ) and you go straight to jail. If its the 1st time, you might get off with a fine and a warning, but you will be a marked man, and 2nd time you will not be so lucky. You will go to jail. or Ukraine. ( shades of Cromwell's " To Hell or Connaught" ) For sure, he is not the thieving murderous rapacious kind and there are many like him, which is why I don't like to categorize all Russians as a nation of thieving rapacious murderous people. What happens when they get sucked into Putins murder machine is a different story. If there was any badness in you, Putin will bring it out, and he has proved this countless times. I remember an experience I had when in Chechnya. I was staying in the house of the local Mullah, a highly educated man who would allegedly have been the leader of the local resistance group, and of course a high value target for the Russians. We were talking about the war, and he was telling me about atrocities that had been committed by the Russians and his and his groups response. He said, the contract Russian soldiers we capture, we will kill out of hand, the conscripts we disarm and feed. They did not wish to be here, they were forced and the Quran forbids the killing of innocents. Personally, I saw many Russians in Chechnya, many of them barely 18,19 or 20. In groups of 3 or 4, in holes in the ground terrified, spooning together for heat and companionship, frozen with the cold and hungry. For sure they were not there by choice.
I don't take any source of news/information as gospel. Neither do I think any government/army is 100% free of corruption, history shows us that would be foolish. The majority of news sources present a one sided view, only showing the successes of forces, or the purity of their governance. This channel is very pro Ukraine, but he still shows the other side of the coin too, so although I don't treat it as gospel I give it more credence than a strictly one sided channel.
So your here to balance the scale's in this thread and give an alternative view to the war in Ukraine
So we're the Posters on the front page all 59 of them bar 1 /2
Or why Ukraine should be bound by the convention when Russia has broken every rule in the book. I know its the higher moral ground but it costs alot of lives.
